There is no phoenix

When Liu Xianglian and Zhang Jun Caiping returned to the Liu residence, Aunt Liu and Xichun had already prepared dinner.

Xichun was very happy to learn that the house that several people saw was satisfactory, so she smiled and said to Zhang Jun: "Brother Zhang, don't worry, you don't have to worry about the money for the house, just treat it as a gift from me for Caiping's marriage. The love between Caiping and me, my dear." Sisters are nothing more than that. As for how to repair it, you and Brother Liu will discuss it together, because we women really don’t understand how to repair it.”

Zhang Jundao: "Brother Liu and sister-in-law have a deep affection for me, Zhang Jun. Zhang Jun is like drinking sweet springs. Although I, Zhang Jun, am a rough person, I understand that love is worth a thousand dollars. Don't worry, I, Zhang Jun, will never let the color screen girl down!"

Xichun Liu Xianglian heard it, and naturally liked it.

Zhang Jun said again: "It's almost Chinese New Year now, I think it will be difficult to find a craftsman to repair the house. My brother Zhang Jian is very good at doing such things, but he is not familiar with this capital city."

Liu Xianglian said: "It's nothing to worry about. There are still craftsmen in the Consort's Mansion renovating the yard and garden. I'll go and tell Feng Ziying that I don't need to worry about it at all. It's just that when the house is being refurbished, I have to keep an eye on it."

Zhang Jundao: "Brother Liu will take me to meet those craftsmen some other day, and I will bring brother Zhang Jian there as well. He naturally knows better than me."

Several people discussed and returned, and after seeing that it was already Xushi, Zhang Jun left and returned to the Jingxi military camp.

Not to mention how Liu Xianglian and Xichun arranged the marriage for Caiping.

But it is said that in the palace at this time, Yuan Chun's body is getting worse day by day after giving birth.

On the afternoon of the third day of December, Shui Ruoyang was reviewing memorials in the Chengde Palace, when Dai Quan came to report, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Physician Zhou from the Imperial Hospital has come, and said that the empress of Fengzao Palace is probably not well."

Shui Ruoyang was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly asked: "What? Concubine Xiande is so seriously ill?"

Dai Quan said: "Physician Zhou said, the emperor should go and have a look. Maybe Concubine Xian De gave birth not long ago, and she may be depressed in her chest, coupled with congestion, so her condition is difficult to recover."

Shui Ruoyang thought for a while and said, "What about the little princess? I'll go and have a look!"

After Shui Ruoyang finished speaking, he hurried out, Dai Quan hurriedly followed, and the imperial doctor Zhou outside the hall saw that Shui Ruoyang was in a bad mood, so he hurriedly followed.

In Fengzao Palace, Yuan Chun's face was sallow, lying on the bed.The worries about her natal family, the disappointment of giving birth to a child, and the loneliness of falling out of favor over the past few days have weighed on Yuanchun, and he finally fell ill.

Sometimes when he heard the cry of a child, Yuan Chun's heart would be filled with infinite concern and hope, but at the same time, there would be a trace of sadness.So in the past few days, Yuan Chun often woke up from nightmares. Sometimes he dreamed that the child was taken away, sometimes he seemed to see his natal family being ransacked and punished, and sometimes he seemed to hear the news of Jia Mu's death.

Yuan Chun is a smart person, and he knows that such a dream is by no means unfounded.But after several days of such nightmares, I couldn't sleep well, couldn't eat, and knew that I was seriously ill.But at this moment, she no longer shed tears.

Seeing Shui Ruoyang coming in a hurry, Yuan Chun hastily struggled to meet him, Shui Ruoyang saw that Yuan Chun had lost a lot of weight in less than ten days, he couldn't help feeling a little unbearable, and hurriedly said: "What's wrong with my concubine? The imperial doctor said that the little princess has always been fine, why is the concubine like this?"

Yuan Chun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the concubine knows that because of the concubine's fault, the emperor is worried. It is the concubine who is ashamed, so I don't blame the emperor."

Shui Ruoyang said: "Since you know, you should take good care of yourself. I have ordered that if the Fengzao Palace wants to call the imperial physician, it must be there when called. The concubine does not look at my face, she should also think about the little princess, doesn't it? Concubine Ai wants the little princess to be with other concubines?"

Yuan Chun was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, of course the concubine wants to be with the little princess every day. She is the concubine and the emperor's flesh and blood. How can the concubine be willing to let her be wronged. But, the concubine wants to talk to the emperor now." A few words from my heart."

After Yuan Chun finished speaking, he waved to Baoqin and other court ladies, "You guys go down first."

Seeing that Yuan Chun seemed to have something to say, Shui Ruoyang hurriedly said, "My concubine has something to say, but it's okay to say it."

Yuan Chun said: "Your Majesty, it has been almost 17 years since my concubine came to this palace. I would like to ask the emperor something. I hope that the emperor will tell the concubine the truth for the sake of you and me as husband and wife."

Shui Ruoyang saw that Yuan Chun seemed to be confessing his last words, so he had no choice but to say: "Okay, I promise, Aifei just ask!"

Yuan Chun said: "Your Majesty, how is the concubine's natal family doing now?"

Shui Ruoyang said: "Rongguo Mansion is safe and sound now, your father has returned to the capital a few days ago. Let me tell you one more thing, I have not broken my promise, someone told Rongguo Mansion the day you gave birth."

After hearing this, Yuan Chun felt a little relieved and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty! This concubine also wants to ask, did someone from my concubine's natal family make a big mistake?"

Shui Ruoyang looked at Yuan Chun, nodded and said: "My concubine is a smart person, you should know that sometimes I am really disappointed with your family. But I am not a person who does not forget old feelings. Your ancestor's contribution to saving you, I I haven’t forgotten it. But I want to tell you that the king’s patience is also limited. It is impossible for me to disregard the country and the country for the sake of kindness, not to mention the family of meritorious service, even the royal family, I can’t let it go.”

Yuan Chun said: "Thank you, the emperor, for being able to say this to the concubine. The concubine understands now. The concubine's natal family is just like that of A Dou back then. No matter what we sisters do, there is no cure."

Shui Ruoyang said: "It's good for my concubine to know, I might as well tell my concubine that someone in your natal family is too much, I don't know how many innocent people's lives have been murdered secretly, and I don't know how many illegal activities have been done. Therefore, I have had people investigate a few months ago, because the memorials and cases of impeachment of your Jia family are enough to fill a book case. But because you are healthy, I am afraid that you will be sad, so I suppressed them first and did not tell You, even if you ask the prince to investigate, you will also investigate secretly."

Seeing that Shui Ruoyang spoke so clearly, Yuan Chun couldn't help being surprised.It seems that I guessed correctly, my natal family really has a big deal, but because of my own reasons, I haven't done anything yet.

Unexpectedly, her natal family was already like this, Yuan Chun couldn't bear it anymore, and tears slowly flowed down.

Seeing Yuan Chun's tears, Shui Ruoyang said again: "My concubine may not believe it, but there are people who have been ruined by your Jia family, but there are also people who can't bear to your Jia family, can you believe me, concubine?"

Yuan Chun heard this, and quickly asked: "Since ancient times, there have been many people who make icing on the cake and few people who give charcoal in the snow. Will there be such a person who repays evil with virtue?"

Shui Ruoyang said: "Don't believe my concubine, then I will tell you a story."

Shui Ruoyang saw that Yuan Chun was listening quietly, so he explained the case of Brother Jin in detail, and then said: "Brother Jin's cousin assassinated Yun Guang three times in order to avenge Brother Jin, but he didn't go to your Jia's mansion, but he was forced to He became a bandit on the mountain, Zhang Jian became a bandit because of the case of Brother Jin, his mother became a nun, and he became a bandit himself; Li Shoubei's family died, and he left home without knowing where he ended up. His only daughter had been in a Taoist temple for many years. She tossed and turned day and night, but when she saw the innocent Jia family, she didn't do anything, but helped. Does my concubine know who Li Shoubei's only surviving daughter is?"

Yuan Chun asked in surprise, "It's Li Rubing?"

Shui Ruoyang nodded and said, "Yes!"

Yuan Chun said: "No wonder, my concubine sometimes looks at her strangely."

Shui Ruoyang said: "Does Aifei know that when you had a difficult labor, who gave you the idea to let you give birth to the little princess safely?"

Yuan Chun said: "It's Li Rubing. The concubine was sober at that time, so the concubine was very grateful to her. Then the last time the emperor blamed the concubine, it was also because of Li Rubing?"

Shui Ruoyang sneered and said, "Is my concubine as confused as your natal family? I remember it very clearly, and you shouldn't forget that it's been less than a month since I met Miss Li, right? , has been reported to me a few months ago. However, I didn't know that Li Shoubei still had such a daughter alive. Let me tell you again, there are still people in your natal family who kill people for a few fans. They want to force people to be concubines, they rape maids and force people to death, and even father-in-laws commit adultery with their daughter-in-law."

Yuan Chun couldn't believe his ears when he heard it, and only looked at Shui Ruoyang with wide eyes.

Shui Ruoyang said again: "My concubine secretly asked people to inquire about her mother's family. Now I will tell you this personally, but I will tell you that your Jia family is not only guilty of these crimes. I just said that there are a lot of files against your Jia family. Love If the concubine is willing to listen, she should take good care of her illness first. I can tell you how your natal family is. For the sake of the little princess, I will not implicate you. However, if you are not healthy, it can only be said that it is you Jia The fate of the government is inevitable."

Yuan Chun listened, wiped away his tears, and hurriedly said: "The concubine thanked the emperor for telling so many truths to the concubine. The emperor can rest assured that the concubine has also read poetry and books. The concubine will not blame the emperor. The emperor will do whatever he wants. How to deal with it. But the concubine has a wish, the concubine wants to see grandmother and mother, I wonder if the emperor can agree?"
